Surprise for You

I was thinking about how very fragile we are under our outer trappings of the latest glad rags, glitz and hype. In the stillness of the morning hours, we come home to our deepest thoughts, hopes and fears – presented as a beautiful box tied with a golden ribbon.

Flowers bloom and butterflies hover in silent majesty. The outside of the box, the one we project to the world, is carefree and wonderful. (All the bad stuff goes in the box.) We can open that box of pity, regret, and selfish acts and really look at and deal with the contents, but it’s scary! In order to grow, pick a time when you are feeling confident and fearless! Lift the lid and prepare to take on the dark side of light. Scrub it clean! Don’t stop! Deal with whatever is in the box! Its easier than we imagine. The true surprise is how wonderful we feel after! It’s the truest gift we can give ourselves.
